This action lets you install a Windows Installer MSI package or MSP update.

Property	Data Type	Description
AdditionalParameters	String	Additional parameters or switches that you want to pass to the Windows Installer runtime (msiexec: see http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc759262%28v=ws.10%29.aspx)
ApplyUpdateMSP	Boolean	Set this property to True if you want to run a MSP (patch/update) package and not a MSI installation
OtherAction	String	If you want to use another MSI action than install or patch/update. For advanced users. See below.
PackagePath	String	The full path to the .MSI or .MSP installation file you want to run. For example %DESTPATH%\productsetup.msi
VariableForExitCode	VarName	Variable that will receive the exit code returned by Windows Installer. For the list of exit codes, please see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa372835%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

If you want to run other actions of Windows Installer such as administrative installation option, advertising a product… then you must use the OtherAction field to specify the action you want to run.

For instance, you would like to invoke the MSI installer with the /A option. If you were to run from a command prompt in Windows, you would type: msiexec /A MyInstall.msi

To get the same behavior in Paquet Builder, enter /A in the OtherAction field and the full path to the MSI package in PackagePath.
